IMPROVEMENT IN CHURN-DASHERS.

Specication forming part of Letters Patent No. 158,029, dated December 22, 1874; application tiled August 4, 1874.

To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, RODNEY M. CASE, of Auburn, in the couutyof Cayuga and in the State of New York, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Ghurn-Dashers; and do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the letters of reference marked thereon, making a part of this specification.

The nature of my invention consists in the construction and arrangement of a churndasher, as will be hereinafter more fully set forth.

In order to enable others skilled in the art to which my invention appertains to make and use the same, I will now proceed to describe its construction and operation, referring to the annexed drawing, in which- Figure l is a longitudinal section of my churn-dasher, and Fig. 2 is an end View of the same.

A represents the handle or dasher-rod, to the end of which is fastened a crossloar, B, forming the head of the dasher. To this head is fastened apiece of wire, bent to form a series of straight wings, C C, on each side of the head, the wire being let into the head and held by means of a plate, D, screwed or otherwise permanently attached to the head. The wings G C are made longer in the center, and gradually decrease toward both ends.

I am aware that a churn-dasher having radial arms at the bottom of the handle, upon which arms is wound a wire in concentric circles, is not new. With my invention the wire dasher fits into grooves in the cross-bar, and there secured by a single plate, D, which covers the bottom of all of the wires, so that the wire coils cannot become separately disengaged from the bar, as would be the case if the wires were separately attached by brads or staples.

The churn-dasher thus constructed is cheap to manufacture, durable, and light, so that even a child can operate it with perfect ease.

Having thus fully described my invention, what I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is-

The combination of the grooved head B, the tortuous wire dasher C, fitted into the grooves in the head, and the covering-plate l), which secures the wires to the head, all as set forth.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing I have hereunto set my hand this 11th day of July, 187 et.
